| We really enjoyed the pizza tour and history of Brooklyn. Tony was a great guide - has perfect personality for what he does. My hope is that the tours never get so large that Tony "farms out" the tour duties, because HE is the one that makes it so successful! |

| I had a very good time on this tour. I love pizza and really wanted to try authentic pizza. I even thought about having pizza today (after I got home) and it just didn't appeal to me since sampling the pizza in Brooklyn. Tony is a great host and tour guide. He is from the area and that definitely is seen as you go on the tour with him. I would definitely take this tour again and am excited to hear about the new tours he has coming out too (especially the Christmas lights tour). I love New York and Brooklyn is just another portion I have seen and love now too. BE sure to go on this tour - my tour was actually quite the opposite of what I expected because most of the people on my tour were actually from the area. So, that in itself, was interesting because I was about to hear about things these people did when they were kids and were just checking it out now as they had gotten older (and they were still pretty much in the area, but just taking the tour). Tony is great and you will definitely have a great time on this tour! |

| My husband and I very recently took the "A Slice of Brooklyn" tour. We had seen it on the Today Show, and decided it might be a fun thing to do as a couple. It wasn't just a fun thing to do as a couple, it is something we would recommend to anyone at any time. The sights were great, the history was interesting, and the food was AMAZING (especially at L&B Spumoni Gardens). Our tour guide, Tony, knew things about Brooklyn that were surprising, and he presented the information with ease and humor. On the way home, my husband and I actually decided it would be worth doing all over again. |

| What a day!
I learned so much about Brooklyn as I had never been there. My husband, who is from New York City, also thoroughly enjoyed the tour as Tony made it so interesting and entertaining. The pizza and spumoni were..... AMAZING!!!!!

| I've lived in NYC for my entire adult life but never had the opportunity to try either of the restaurants on Tony's tour. Both were great, the weather was nice and it was a good group, though I was a little surprised that I was the only local.
Tony is a very enthusiastic Brooklyn native and advocate for the borough, pointed out some cool, little known facts about the borough (I have to go back and re watch Saturday Nigh Fever and The French Connection to complete my geography lesson) and put on a great tour. I'd highly recommend it as a fun thing to do with a random day off or when you have relatives in town. |

| We spent 5 days in NY seeing 2 baseball games and 2 broadway plays. The Brooklyn Pixzza tour was one of the highlights of our trip that we will remember for years to come. In terms of the price, it was without doubt a much better value than either of the Broadway plays. We have already recommended this tour to friends who are visiting NY later in the sumnmer. When we return (and we will come back) we will definitely take one of the other tours that Tony offers. |

| We thoroughly enjoyed this 4.5 hour tour. Tony is the best ambassador Brooklyn could hope for. We learned a bunch about pizza in general and Brooklyn in particular. Wonderful background stories and sightseeing throughout. We'll do it again and look forward to the "Wiseguys" tour with Tony in the future. |

| My husband and I really enjoyed the tour. It was extremely well put together. We loved the mix of history, movie clips, current events, and, of course, pizza! So much more than your typical tour. |
